Rare mammals recorded in Borneo – Order: Erinaceomorpha Malaysia Short-tailed Gymnure, Hylomys suillus dorsalis (endemic subspecies): Mesilau Resort, Kinabalu National Park, 1900 m (Fig. 2). While on a wildlife-watching trip to Sabah, Borneo, May 21 to June 5, 2011, Jeffrey Harding and I saw several rare and endangered mammal species whose distributions are not well known. Following is a list of the rarest ones with notes on location, elevation, and conservation status. Elevations were taken with a Barigo altimeter. Conservation status notes are based on IUCN (2011). Taxonomy follows Wilson & Reeder (2005). Evidence included field notes and photographs for most species mentioned below. I offer these notes in case they may be of use in future conservation efforts or distribution studies. Order: Carnivora Fig. 2: Short-tailed Gymnure Small-toothed Palm Civet, Arctogalidia trivirgata stigmaticus: not listed as endangered, but Order: Primates population decreasing and range poorly known. I Besides the common and widespread Long-tailed photographed (Fig. 1) one at night on the middle Macaques (M. fascicularis) and Silvered Lutungs Kinabatangan River feeding on figs. Unlike the (Trachypithecus cristatus), we saw the following illustrations in Payne et al. (1985) and Francis endangered species in the wild: (2008), this individual has thin, dark lateral bars on its sides and stripes on the side of its neck, in Southern Pig-tailed Macaque, Macaca addition to the usual dark longitudinal stripes on the nemestrina (vulnerable, population decreasing).

To access the most up-to-date Conservation Outlook Assessment for this site, please visit https://www.worldheritageoutlook.iucn.org. Kinabalu Park SITE INFORMATION Country: Malaysia Inscribed in: 2000 Criteria: (ix) (x) Site description: Kinabalu Park, in the State of Sabah on the northern end of the island of Borneo, is dominated by Mount Kinabalu (4,095 m), the highest mountain between the Himalayas and New Guinea. It has a very wide range of habitats, from rich tropical lowland and hill rainforest to tropical mountain forest, sub-alpine forest and scrub on the higher elevations. It has been designated as a Centre of Plant Diversity for Southeast Asia and is exceptionally rich in species with examples of flora from the Himalayas, China, Australia, Malaysia, as well as pan-tropical flora. © UNESCO IUCN World Heritage Outlook: https://worldheritageoutlook.iucn.org/ Kinabalu Park - 2017 Conservation Outlook Assessment (archived) SUMMARY 2017 Conservation Outlook Good with some concerns The conservation outlook for the natural heritage values of Kinabalu Park remains robust, and while the outstanding biodiversity values appear to be secure there is a need for formal monitoring to confirm this. Community support for maintaining the integrity of the biodiversity values require further investment in community education activities, and increasing visitation being experienced by the property indicates that management of tourism impacts will need to become more effective to avoid degradation of the park environment.
